ESSIEN MUST REJECT THIS JOB BECAUSE OTTO ADDO AND OKRAKU WILL DESTROY HIS FUTURE IN THE COACHING JOB WHICH WILL REFLECT ON HIS CV. OTTO ADDO IS AN OLD DOG OF OKRAKU SO HE IS NEVER GOING TO BE A MAN ON HIS OWN. MR NO PLAYING NOR COACHING EXPERIENCE OKRAKU IS GOING SELECT PLAYERS FOR OTTO ADDO, WHICH WILL ALWAYS BRING DISGRACE. OTTO ADDO CHAPTER ONE WAS THE SAME THING, SERBIA MILO FELL A VICTIM TO THAT, CK AKUNNOR CRIED OVER THIS PRACTICE OF OKRAKU, CHRIS HUGHTON REGRETS WORKING UNDER OKRAKU. ESSIEN AND KWARASEY, I WISH YOU READ ME, REJECT THIS OFFER AT ONCE!

This is a Winning Team. Skeptics should just wait to see. The four have adequate international exposure, pedigree, ambition and standards far above most of their fellow Ghanaian coaches. They also have sound knowledge and experience in Ghana and African football - as fans, for they all started as fans of Ghana soccer from childhood, through Dressing Rooms and as players. The foreign coaches do not have these.

I like the combination. Otto Addo, Michael Essien, Laryea Kingston, and Adam Kwarasey. I think Augustine Arhinful or Joe Addo should be made the team manager.

I listened to the host of Manuel Sports called Mr. Solomon Kwadwo Asante on re-appointing Otto Addo to BS . And he was supporting the move.Somebody should tell him his knowledge about football is zero. Supporting Otto back in Ghana? There is no difference between Chris Hougton and Otto.We all said Chris should be given the job because he knows the players already.We have all regretted.And you want to stand on the same reason and bring back Otto ? Please somebody should tell him to go and listen to Pure fm sports 20.02.2024 and learn about why Otto can NEVER NEVER NEVER come back.

With all that's going on and no matter who becomes the coach,GFA please setup a striking school within the Black Stars and make Asamoah Gyan the coach. The game of soccer is all about goals. Trust me i experimented with this philosophy and appointed Abukari Gariba of blessed memory and a former striker for Asante Kotoko and the appointment paid dividends. Try it and it will work

So why can't the FA allow the coach to pick his own assistants instead of the FA choosing for the coach. I just don't understand. How can the coach work with a team he may not like?

This selection of coaches will be effective if Otto Addo is replaced with Stephen Appiah. We have seen Otto Addo's coaching styles, there is nothing new he will bring to the table. If GFA goes ahead and bring back Otto Addo, they will see our raft in this country. Why is that Kurt occupying that GFA presidency. Is he a shameless being. Can't he see he is a failure. He should have been resigned long time with all his executives. He is there for his stomach that is why he has been hard-headed.

@Danso so you are saying we should give the job to Otto Addo because he scouted Haaland, Aubemeyang, Pulisic, Mario Gotze . He scouted them long long ago .He maybe a good scout but not a good coach.There are some coaches who are good at scouting like Derek Boateng , Oti Akenteng but not necesarily good coaches. You can look at him at the world cup where we all noticed he was not there yet.
